Too Many Miles
Journey of Redemption: Too Many Miles Lyrics Unveiled
Lyrics
The closer I get to where You are there
The closer I approach your presence or essence
The clearer I see Your fingerprints are everywhere
I perceive more distinctly the evidence of your influence or involvement in everything
This must be a moment between bliss and dark despair
This seems to be a moment situated between extreme happiness and profound hopelessness
The louder I hear You calling my name
The more distinctly I perceive your summons or calling out to me
The more I remember I won't be the same
I become increasingly aware that I cannot remain unchanged
I'd run to the bushes but my feet are torn and lame from
I would seek refuge or solace, but I'm unable to due to my worn-out and injured feet
Too many miles straying from Your side
I've traveled too far away from your presence
Failing to fit in Your shoes
I've failed to understand or emulate your ways or qualities
Too many miles trying to run and hide
I've attempted to escape and conceal myself, despite having much to lose by doing so
When there was so much to lose
There were significant things at stake or to be lost
Break my leg if You must
If necessary, let adversity come to prevent me from straying, but ensure I remain close to you
But keep me close to You
Despite difficulties, keep me in close proximity to you
The more I can feel Your hand upon me
The more I sense your guidance or support upon me
The less I remember who it was I used to be
I progressively forget the person I used to be
I look back at my footprints and clearly I can see
Reflecting on my past actions, I clearly see the marks or impact I've left behind
Not to put a strain on a stiff neck
Without straining myself by looking back
By looking behind me
By not dwelling on the past or past experiences
I've held these memories too long
I've held onto memories for too long
Before I put them away
Before I store them away or let go of them
Let them remind me where I belong
Let these memories serve as a reminder of where I truly belong
